19 Regret

I looked at him out of the corner of my eye, he was walking towards the library, drowned in his thoughts ... his shoulders were bent and there was no trace of his usual smile on his lips...we broke him!

"I have an awful feeling Luke ... why did you do that? I don't have a good feeling at all that we betrayed Louis like this!" Calum whispered sadly, and I took a deep breath. My heart ached when I saw Louis in that state, but what was our other choice?

"I'm not enjoying this! I feel guilty too, but we had no other choice ... we have to stick to Zayn ... It's captain's direct order!"

"Fuck ... I'll rather be punished again for disobeying, instead of staying beside Zayn and betraying Louis... Luke, we're also to blame for this mess! We caused him to lose Liam. Liam was the best support Louis could ever have, and Liam wasn't just his physical supporter ... Luke, Louis lost his best friend! You don't want to say anything?"

Callum complained with a thick frown, and I nodded slowly. His words reminded me of an interesting matter that I wanted to talk to him about it. It did not make sense!

"Why yes...with all the strange and powerful feelings I have for Louis and I can say with confidence that I prefer Louis over Zayn, we should keep that in mind that it was Louis's choice! Calum isn't this seem strange to you? Isn't it odd that he chose Zayn instead of his best friend? Someone who makes his life like hell?"

When I asked him excitedly and surprised, he raised his head and stares at me with big eyes...

"Don't tell me you just understood what happened and what exactly Louis did!"

He glanced around, and after he made sure that Zayn was busy with his cousin, Daniel, he got closer to me with shining eyes!

"What...of course not! But ... did you notice what he said when he was arguing with us in the parking lot? He said because we couldn't stop the fight, he was forced to lose one of his most important ones ... Think about it, Luke...He said he had to choose between his most important ones!" He said excitedly and my eyes widened...

"And that means Zayn is just as important to him as Liam, and when he has to choose ..."

"He will prefer the one who is like a bat in his ass all the time, to his best friend and supporter! This situation is becoming more and more interesting!" Calum completed my sentence excitedly and glanced at Zayn who was still talking to his cousin.

"We have to talk to the captain tonight and tell him that there are many suspicious things in this situation ... Call him!" I said hurriedly but he just grinned like the idiot he was!

"Why don't you call him yourself?" He asked with excitement, smirking like a hyena and all I wanted at that moment was to kick him right in the face!

"Well...what difference does it make? You call him!" I ordered strictly and he smiled with his whole ugly face! He was in the mood to annoy the shit out of me...again!

"Oh my ... someone is being shy in here! Why are you embarrassed, buddy? The captain isn't really your boyfriend! You know that, right?" He whispered mischievously and I rolled my eyes at him angrily! Maybe it wasn't a bad idea to report his unprofessional behavior to boss Ashford!

"Be careful of what you say! And it's forbidden to discuss private matters in public! Now shut up and call him!"

"You're talking nonsense! You'll finally confess. I'm sure of that one!" He winked at me then he stopped his teasing and pulled his phone out of his pocket when he sensed that I'm at my breaking point and might beat him to death!

"What happened?" He looked at me with a small frown and surprised, pushed his phone into his pocket.

"His phone is off! Hey ... what do you think about seeing the captain in person? Louis knows us now and there isn't any reason we can't go to the store. We can take Louis with us and explain our reasons for him...what do you say?"

I thought about it for a moment and when I saw that it wasn't much of a bad idea, I nodded with a small smile." You can think too...sometimes!"

"Fuck you!"

I leaned against my seat with a smile and looked at Zayn who was whispering with his cousin. The interesting thing that was making me take the risk and go to the store with Calum was that apart from Louis's behavior, Zayn's behavior was also very strange! He acted as if he was sure that Louis would choose him, he was clinging to Louis in such a way that as if he has known him for several years ... Weird!

I had memorized all of Louis's schedule, and I knew he had class until three PM, and because we had chosen all of our Curriculums similar to Zayn's, all of our classes were shared with Louis too ... Oh fuck!

How we didn't realize that Zayn always harmonizes with Louis? Whether in his class's, whether in the days that he comes to university! Zayn always is perfectly in line with Louis's schedule!

As soon as the professor left the class, I took my things and got up from my seat...

"Ok, let's go!" Calum whispered with excitement and I tried to not look so satisfied with my decision. But God...it felt so good!

"Where do you think you're going? One of us must stay with Zayn, otherwise, we have a 100% chance to get punished! You stay here and make an excuse for me so I can take Louis with me to the store and explain the situation to the captain. Okay, buddy?"

"I really appreciate it when you ask my opinion about everything! I hate you dickhead ...the cool parts are always yours!"

I clapped his shoulder with a smirk and hurried out of the classroom to find him before he could left the university , and I was finally able to get close to him in the parking lot ... small body and high speed!

"Louis!"

Hearing my voice, he turned to me in surprise and when he saw me, his eyes widened...

"Why are you here? Are you crazy? If Zayn hears that you still talking to me, it will end badly for you!" He said anxiously and looked around quickly to make sure Zayn or his group were not close enough to see us together in the crowded parking lot...He was so kind and Seeing him alone and sad was burning my heart...

"I don't care, Louis ... we have to talk. Can I take you to the store?"

He looked at me for a moment and then nodded with a smile. "I love motor riding!"

"Then let's go!"

Until we get to the store, he made me laugh so many times with his crazy jokes, he tested his drumming skills on my helmet and blocked my view a few times with his hands...In general, he almost killed us few times, but it was good! It was great to have someone like Louis by my side. He was acting as if he had no grudge against me...As if he already forgot what we did to him a few hours ago!

I parked my motorcycle in the parking lot of the store, and I wanted to tell him that he could get off, but even before I could turn off the motorcycle, Louis quickly jumped down of it like a rabbit! With a laugh, he took the helmet off his head and gave it to me and arranged his hair...

"Thanks, buddy ... It has been a long time since the store route wasn't this pleasant for me!"

With a smile, I put my helmet on the tank and got off my motorcycle. I was so happy that I was able to change his mood at least a little bit...betraying him in front of everyone was a bitchy move!

"Don't mention it! In fact...Louis...I wanted to talk to you about something."

He stared at me for a few seconds, confused, and then shook his head with a smile. "You mean the parking lot drama? Forget it!"

"But..." I tried to protest but when I saw his relaxed and smiley face, I knew he wasn't angry with us from the beginning!

"Seriously. You don't have to bother yourself. My issue with Liam and Zayn was my fault, and in fact, I have to apologize! I had no right to talk to you and Calum like that. I made a rash decision and I was furious because I did not know what exactly I did! Just forget it! "

"Really?" He nodded with a gentle smile that warmed my heart! I really wanted the Alpha to be Louis!

"Yeah! Don't worry about it! Aren't you coming inside? I think Ashton is already inside. He's always early!"

I nodded with a big smile and he laughed out loud while walking beside me towards the entrance of the store...

"I have a question...New sellers should always check in sooner than the senior sellers?"

"Of course not! Until yesterday, I was the one who opened the shop, but because my schedule was disrupted due to the university and my new project, yesterday I handed over the key to our chief manager and arranged a break between the university and work for myself ... I really needed it!"

I glanced at his tired face and bit my lip ... Sora had said that the alpha we are looking for is rich in every way ... Louis's financial state wasn't good at all, and Zayn...that rude bastard had a perfect condition!

"What are you thinking about so deeply?" He was staring at me with a grin and I had to come up with a convincing answer very soon! Uh...

"Ashton?"

"Then what are you doing here? If you want to be naughty with your boyfriend, you have to walk faster! Robin likes her sellers to be behind their counter during working hours! "

My cheeks were burning with embarrassment but I nodded anyway! He was right...I needed to see my boyfri...captain! NOT for naughty things...I had a piece of really important information!
